What is Lee Newnes's strike rate?

Lee Newnes has won 21 of 272 rides since 2008, a strike rate of 7.7% (as at 28 October 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.

Which course does Lee Newnes do best at?

Southwell (AW) by strike rate: 6 wins from 31 rides (19.4%) since 2008. Read from the 15 courses with the most rides on the same basis, and only those with at least 30 — a small sample cannot top the list, and a rarely-visited course is not in the comparison.

Which yard does Lee Newnes ride most for?

Mark Usher, with 154 rides since 2008 — 57% of the total. That pairing has won 8 (5.2%).

What is Lee Newnes's Fair A/E?

1.07, from 271 rides with a computed fair probability since 2008. Fair A/E compares actual wins with a margin-stripped market expectation, so 1.00 is par: above it the wins came at bigger prices than the margin-free market implied, below it they did not.

The read

The record is strongest at Southwell (AW) (19.4%, n=31), clear of the rider's 7.7% baseline. It is weakest at Wolverhampton (AW) (4% over 50 rides) — the largest sample in the record, and the widest gap. Rides in big fields of 14 or more have been a positive signal at 10.9% (n=46, Fair A/E 2.23), but horses returning fresh after 61+ days have been a poor signal at 3.2% (n=31, Fair A/E 0.69). First rides on a horse are the standout value angle: 8.4% strikes only just above baseline, but Fair A/E 1.32 and +81.75 to a £1 stake over 107 rides — a record the market has persistently underpriced. The market has consistently overbet claiming rides: 5.6% strike, Fair A/E 0.80 and −19.25 to a £1 stake over 248 rides — those runners underperformed what the price implied. Mark Usher supplied 57% of the rides and sits below the rider's average (5.2% vs 7.7%, A/E 0.84). The rider also read well off a 15-30-day break (11.7%, n=103).

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 7.7% baseline — descriptive splits with the sample always shown, not tips. Tiles under 30 runs render muted. First rides are the first captured pairing of horse and rider; last-time-out winners are horses whose previous captured run was a win; claiming rides are runs where the rider carried a weight claim. Group / Graded covers pattern and listed races.

In our archive from its very first year (2005), so this career almost certainly began earlier than our record does. The figures above count 2005 onwards only — what the archive holds, not a full-career total. This card is the full archive census (2005→); the statistics in the header aggregate from 2008 — the floor that guarantees every horse a complete captured career — so this card can legitimately show more wins than the header.
